When I made this recipe the first time, I didn't have a whole package of cream cheese, so I used about a half package (4 oz.) and the dressing was more like a real dressing. This time I had a whole package and used it all and dressing was very stiff and truthfully didn't taste as good as the first time. Next time, I will use less cream cheese to have more of a real dressing. I also used light cream cheese and sour cream, splenda and splenda brown sugar.

We make this salad in the summer, always to rave reviews. A couple things to do differently is to use 2 lbs green 2 lbs red grapes and to cut the grapes in half.. much easier to eat. Also, use 1/4 cup white sugar and 1 cup brown sugar with the pecans and press into the top of the grapes in a flat dish to seal and make up the day before. It is great as a leftover and awesome sweet end to the meal.

This is a great recipe. I modify it by using light sour cream and light cream cheese. I also use 1/2 cup of Splenda rather than sugar and Splenda Blend brown sugar.

I could only give it 4 stars because this recipe is just not nearly as good when pecans are used instead of being topped with granola. I use the "Just Bunches" cereal that's a spin-off from Honey Bunches of Oats and cover the top with it. It's goes from "good" to "absolutely delicious". If you think you like it this way, add in the granola.

The sour cream and cream cheese was lumpy but I could have fixed that. The thick creamy high calorie dressing is really overkill for a light fruit salad.

This dish is soooo delicious! I made it with 8 cups of grapes, a mixture of green and red. I sprinkled about a cup of brown sugar and toasted pecans on top and did not mix. It was the biggest hit of all the food at our Cub Scout lunch today.

A sweet and refreshing side dish or light dessert. It's wonderful with any fruit. Soft fruits will fall apart, any crisp fruit will work fine. Great recipe!

Love this recipe! Since red grapes were on sale, I used them instead of green grapes. Originally I had intended on halving the recipe & did so with all of the ingredients except for the vanilla & cream cheese (just used one whole package of 1/3 less fat) on accident (oops). To make up for the overflow of cream cheese I made sure to add in a bit more pecans & the result came out soooo good. I have had versions of this salad before, but this is for sure my favorite. :)

Good dessert. My husband liked this too and said he'd like more variety of fruits next time. My son didn't like this at all. I used an neufchatel cheese instead and an extra ounce since I didn't want to put that little bit back in the fridge. The sauce on it's own would be a great fruit dip. Thanks!

I used half the amount of grapes but added a can of drained chunk pineapple. I also added marshmallows and increased the sugar to 1 cup instead 1/2 cup. Then I added a little bit of red food coloring to make it pink.

We tried using Stevia instead of white sugar and it was great! We started with one packet and added just a little at a time until we reached the level of sweetness we wanted. My kids LOVE this recipe. We also used 1/2 green and 1/2 red grapes.

Excellent salad. I had this at a holiday function and immediately logged on to find the recipe. 4lbs is incorrect. I used 4 cups of grapes but you can just add more or less if you choose. I mix the pecans and brown sugar together and then sprinkle both on top. There is already white sugar in the sour cream mixture. The brown sugar/pecans on top gives it a streusel like topping. We make this whenever red grapes go on sale since they seem to be sweeter than green.

This recipe is so simple and very delicious to my family. We usually eat it as a snack. The only change I make to the recipe is that I do not measure the pecans or brown sugar. I sprinkle them both on top until the grape cream mixture is well covered and leave it that way. I don't mix them in.

I have made this several times... but I never really follow all the steps... I mix the cream cheese, sour cream, sugar (Splenda), and vanilla together and just use this as a dip for any fruit I have. This makes the best tasting fruit dip ever, and since I don't stir in the fruit, it looks a little prettier having the dip in a bowl and fresh fruit all around. Can top the dip with the brown sugar and chopped pecans or leave it off. Either way, it tastes great.

I just love this grape salad! I use red grapes, I just think they taste better with it...but I do love the idea of mixing the red & green grapes--I'll have to try that one. I also do this salad with drained mandrine oranges (no grapes) oooooh, it's GOOD!!!
